"I'd rather make out with my Monroebot"
Futurama satire is becoming reality
We're in a cocktail mix of Futurama and Idiocracy.
And a lot 1984
I love you PHILLIP J FRY.
I knew I should've shown him Electro-Gonorrhea: The Noisy Killer.
Barbeaubot FTW

I think it has been since the show came out.
Fiction <> Reality at this point
Fiction and reality have always had murky borders. Not that you're wrong tho
Is this grandpa blaming his grandson? What fucking 11 year old has access to "any celebrity" and chooses a woman that's been dead before their parents were born, or a ... 60? 80? plus year old woman?
EDIT: Whitney houston is messing up my head, she was born in 1963, died 2012 but was under 50? (aged 48). I thought she was way older and alive. Also, I imagine people from the 60s to be old as fuck now. Although I thought she was like 30 or 40 during the 80s.
IDFK, I can barely remember my own age.
I suppose those celeb nudes are public domain and royalty free now
You might be right. That would be really cruel of grandpa, because everyone probably knows who the mom is in the neighborhood suing.
Parents would be horrified to learn what was easily found when I was 11 on the internet.
Still is.
Monroe? HOUSTON? Not an anime catgirl, busty succubus, eldrich tentacle monster, or the character from his favorite innocent kids cartoon?
This generation is doomed...
Ugh, chatbots that let you message a sexy big boobed succubus? Absolutely disgusting. What kind of websites would let someone do that? Are they free?

A boy who likes the classics! I wonder what he talks to them about? Catches them up on the current state of Roblox?
I'm kind of thinking that kid is cool, he's very open.
Forgive me, but the kid had talked to these bots for 2 weeks? And after taking the phone away mom sent him to therapy? That seems... extreme to me, how much damage did those chatbots cause in such a short time?
They literally sucked all of his " life force " out in the floor. Sometimes twice per day.
Nowhere near as much as his mum finding out
Them freaking out and punishing about this would likely cause more harm. Nothing like therapy at a young age to reinforce feelings of alienation amongst their peers.
Poor kid. His mother will suck enough of his blood until he would have a chance to move out.
I don’t use it, so maybe I missed something, but I could have sworn there was some drama a couple months back because Character AI makes you give them a photo of your ID to use it now. Did they backtrack on that, or was it just regional or something?
Jesus, that's so much worse
It's regional, can confirm that I never got asked for my ID since I don't live in europe or north america.
Don't let AI Jackie find out...
What exactly are the parents upset about? I don't get it.
Pre Crack Whitney or post Crack Whitney? Marlin Monroe or thicc Norma Jean?
